Congratulations Korokoro! Our suburb of the week last week.
Well done to all the Korokoro-weanians? Korokoro-nites? Korokoro-stodians?

Well done to all the Korokoro-weanians? Korokoro-nites? Korokoro-stodians?
Whatever the name, they're an awesome bunch of #waterlovers, which is great to see as this summer is just starting to heat up.
We need to make sure we're looking after our water so it lasts all summer long!
Tell your family and friends who live up Korokoro that they're doing a great job.
One of our favourite tips is to collect water in a rainwater tank. This water is a great way to give your garden a bit of extra love when it's hot, and can be used after an earthquake as emergency water.
What tips will you be doing this week to help your suburb take the prestigious 'Suburb of the Week' title?
#ourwaterourfuture #loveeverydrop
Another beautiful day today! With the weather heating up how will you be enjoying the water this summer?
Meet Ruby, a rower and #waterlover from Lower Hutt, who enjoys getting out on the water and thinks it's so important that we look after it.

Critical analysis of culture change
Collision, Compromise and Conversion during the Wesleyan Hokianga Mission, 1827-1855: A critical study of Hokianga Māori, missionary and kauri merchant interactions is a critical analysis of early New Zealand.
The book looks at culture change and Māori conversion during the Wesleyan Hokianga Mission and how with Mission Superintendent, William White, Māori adopted and adapted Christianity and European 'modernity' to suit their own culture.
Author Gary Clover will present his recently launched book on culture change and Māori conversion during the Wesleyan Hokianga Mission.
Wesleyan Hokianga Mission in New Zealand
The book seeks to pay tribute to the scholarship of the late Associate-Professor John M.R. Owens of Massey University by highlighting some of his early New Zealand contact era scholarship as presented in the Hokianga portion of his unpublished PhD thesis of 1969 on the Wesleyan Mission in New Zealand.
Also to inform the forthcoming two day bicentenary symposium on the beginning of the Wesleyan Mission to New Zealand in 1819 to be held by Methodist churches on 24-26 May 2019 at the College of St John the Evangelist, Auckland.
Author Gary Clover, Dame Claudia Orange (Te Papa Research Fellow) and Dr Geoff Troughton (Senior History Lecturer, Victoria University of Wellington) will each speak about the publication.
Light refreshments will be available.
About the speaker
Gary Clover is a retired Methodist Presbyter with a forty-year interest in culture change and conversion in early contact-era New Zealand.
His 1973 Auckland MA thesis examined Māori conversion in South Taranaki. He has earlier published two monographs, and in the Wesley Historical Society and Stimulus journals, and elsewhere.

The WW100 website website describes The Battle of Le Quesnoy, in northern France on 4 November 1918, as one of New Zealand’s most important victories, but also the last. A few days after the liberation of the town, the Armistice ending the First World War was signed in Compiegne, France. The liberation of Le Quesnoy is still anchored in the memory of New Zealanders and the people of the town. To mark the centenary of this major event, Turnbull research librarian Gillian Headifen explores the collections to identify material relating to the Battle and the people involved. Gillian Headifen is the Research Librarian Oral History in the Alexander Turnbull Library’s Research Enquiries team, and has worked in the Library for 17 years. She has previously given in talks in the Family History series on the Battle of Messines, the sinking of the Marquette, and the use of oral history for family history research.
